A Banda Aceh-based motor trail community was touring inside a local forest
in Indonesia's western-most province when the rider in the lead suddenly fell
off his bike due to something on the trail in front of him.

He was shocked by the appearance of a human-like figure suddenly coming out
from the woods carrying a wooden stick.

In the video, the mysterious figure looked like a human being but shorter
in size, tribunnews.com reported.

The bald, topless figure stopped for a while before running off really
fast, leaving the group behind. Other riders tried to chase it but the figure
ran into the shrubs and disappeared the forest.

The video, uploaded by YouTube account Fredography on March 22, has gone
viral and garnered more than 2 million views as of Tuesday (March 28) morning.

Many people left comments on the video, sharing theories about the
mysterious figure.

There were some who suspected the figure to be a member of the Mante tribe,
an ethnic group that is one of Aceh's urban legends told and passed down the
generations about the origins of modern-day Aceh people. However, there has not
been any scientific expeditions to establish the presence of the tribe.

Local online news websites also picked up the story, sparking online
debates and discussion over the mysterious sighting.
